The Friends of the Cabildo, the support group for the Louisiana State Museum, has been conducting oral history interviews since 1972. In 1992 the FOC and the New Orleans Public Library agreed to a transfer of the duplicate user tapes from the Museum's Louisiana Historical Center to the Library's Louisiana Division. Numerous additions to the collection have been made since the original 1992 transfer. Typed or handwritten index cards summarizing each interview were also transferred to the Louisiana Division with the tapes. |
